Paving Control for Asphalt Pavers

Solutions | Machine Control | Paving Control for Asphalt Pavers

Accelerate your paving projects with precision and confidence using Trimble’s Paving Control for Asphalt Pavers, available through SITECH Tejas.

Designed to boost efficiency, improve surface smoothness, and cut material costs, Trimble Roadworks Paving Control Systems leverage advanced 2D references or full 3D design models to guide every pass.

With the power of the 3D Paving Control Platform, operators can control screed depth and slope with unmatched accuracy—delivering consistent, high-quality results while saving time and resources.

Productive, Integrated and Innovative

Guided by a 2D reference or 3D design model, Trimble Roadworks Paving Control Systems can help you spend less on materials and finish faster.

Horizontal Steering Control and Automatic Screed Width Control

The Horizontal Steering Control and automatic screed width control on Vögele Navitronic asphalt pavers automatically steer and control the screed width for linear paving and radius paving according to 3D design, ensuring that pavement is placed accurately horizontally and vertically, all without operator intervention.

Productive and Precise Paving

Lay the finished surface with accuracy to 0.01 feet (3 millimeters)
Minimize the use of expensive material
Pave within a tighter tolerance and get closer to the minimal asphalt thickness specification
Reduce labor costs by controlling the screed with one operator
Reduce operator mistakes with the easy-to-use display interface
Lay complex designs such as transitions, super-elevated curves and frequently changing cross slopes
Achieve accuracy and smoothness specifications, which can mean a bigger bonus

Trimble 3D Paving Control in Action

Peter Brooks, paving control expert from SITECH UK/Ireland, goes onsite at a major UK road job to explain how Trimble 3D machine control systems work on asphalt pavers like those used by Aggregate Industries

Trimble Hot Swap

Trimble Hot Swap instantly transfers total station control without the operator needing to stop the machine to make adjustments or re-calibrate.

3D Paving Control

The Trimble Roadworks 3D Paving Control Platform allows you to accurately control the screed to pave with variable depth and slope based on a 3D design.

Take out high and low areas early in the process with the less expensive first layer materials
Increase road smoothness while using less asphalt than with traditional paving methods
Lay complex designs such as transitions, super-elevated curves and frequently changing cross slopes
Achieve accuracy and smoothness specifications, which can mean bonus income
Eliminate the time consuming and costly step of setting out stringline

Pave to a Design

Create a 3D model in Trimble Business Center and load onto the in-cab display
Use the SPS930 Universal Total Station and on-board software and hardware to compare the actual screed position and slope with the 3D model
The system automatically guides the screed to lay exactly the right material thickness and slope
